(Supposedly) Defending their rights in a court of law and participating in fair elections appears as "infighting" to you, lol.

No, not perfectly organized invaders, literally any heierarchal group. Because the locals cannot do anything together without consensus. Defence would bw difficult, counter attacking would be impossible or ineffective because the local group would splinter.

Lmao

Insulting Hexbear for actual Fascism is what Fascism is to you?

I want to apologize for my needless aggression earlier. I spent the morning arguing with CCP propogandists and its got me seeing red. (see what I did there?)

Primaries aren't restrictive, its just that nobody actually votes in them. I think the highest turnout in USA history was 36.9 Million people in a primary election, chosen to represent 81 Million DNC Voters and again to represent 329.5 Million Americans total.

There is a huge problem with campaign finance laws in the USA, despite our many laws regulating it, and admittedly not having a democracy would fix that specific problem, but it sure as fuck won't make any American's lives better.

Oh OK Boomer, sorry for using the word Tankie to describe anybody other than a 1948 Hungarian/Bulgarian USSR sympathizer. /s

Yeah, blocked users cannot see or vote on your content.

I assure you that unstable people already stalk others and vote histories are already visible to those who try hard enough.

They can come at me, I downvote every single hexbear post in the feed regardless of content.

Wouldn't that just lead to no action being taken and eventually falling to a system of government, likely invaders, who are capable of taking organized actions?

You know, like every power vacuum ever recorded for all of human history?

If you want to fix things I'm all for it, but lets not pretend that the notion of "Western Democracies" being responsible for their problems has any merit whatsoever.

I notice that now, more than ever before, new upcoming artists' and alternative music is heavily pop-oriented, synthesized, and digital.

Is it just easier for them or do Gen Z not have the fondness for guitar that dominated the 1980s to the 2010s?

 
 
 
 
 

House Rules:

5 Sequential Cards high value > 5 Sequential Cards low value > 4 of a kind high value > 4 of a kind low value > 3 of a kind high value> 3 of a kind low value > 2 of a kind high value > 2 of a kind low value

Aces worth more than Kings for pairing, but a sequence of Ace to 5 is a low value sequence

Only Numbers are considered, signs like clubs/spades/hearts/diamond don't count towards pairs.

If you tie then the point pool is split. Everybody starts at 0 and their scores go negative as they play the first round until they win.

Each player ante the entry and is given 5 face down cards of which 3 are revealed immediately. Folding means you lose the entry, staying means you pay an additional amount equal to entry, you can double the bet for this phase (double the entry adding up to triple the initial ante total) and force every player to do the same or fold, and a new card is revealed. This repeats a second time so that all 5 cards are now known to you.

Finally, everyone has their cards revealed to everyone else. Read them and weep.

After Three Rounds the lowest scoring player(s) is eliminated.

If I get a few interested people then I plan to make an interface for it which receives it's cards data from a server. There are no current plans for wagering or prizes, but maybe I'll see what we can do if I get some good feedback.
